Murder With Peacocks

A funny cozy can be a hard to do well. A crazy family cozy can be hard to do. This is both funny and a crazy family. I loved it. I loved getting to know all the family. I will be reading more of these!

Well I just wrote a tidy, witty little review and I lost it and unfortuantly I can only be witty once a day. I really liked this book but if I were to be honest and really start analyzing, I just might analyze myself out of liking it - so no analyzing! I really liked Meg, although I admit I had a hard time believing that a entrepreneurial business owner - she is a blacksmith, how cool is that! - would be such a doormat (stopping self from analyzing). I thought the family was quirky enough to be entertaining without being too terribly over the top, okay maybe the uncle in the gorilla costume may have been a bit over the top, and the croquet game, and ... better just stop myself there. I loved Michael. I know, I know, so unrealistic but that is one of the reasons I read cozy fiction. Overall I thought it was a delightful, easy read. (My first review was so much better!)
